    I bought my 650 Seca in '91 when I returned from the Gulf War with about 5K miles on it. I didn't ride it a lot and it had about 11K when I bought a house that needed a bunch of work and stopped riding altogether. I put it back on the road in Oct. of '07 and the bike now has 33K on it. I put on 17K last year and I'm kinda shootin' to take it over 50K this year. What's your total?

    My odo conked out at 50k+. There's no knowing how many actual miles.

    The good news is, I'm getting a new gauge head and the odo only reads like 3k. So my bike must only have 3k on it. ;)

    I have over 100000 kilometers. That's over 60000 miles, if my math is right.

    I think I'm at about 57K. I'm on my third speedometer on this bike and thought I could keep all the numbers straight in my head. HA! I should have known better.

    I've put 700 on it just since I installed my Acewell about 2 months ago.

    7,660mi on the XJ550.
    I've only put on 150mi on it since putting it back on the road. Hopefully the wife can rack up a few miles on it this spring.

    Mileages in my sig as well. The '83 will become my daily rider once complete, and my daily commute is 126 miles round trip, so it won't be a "low mileage" bike for long.

    There's no 40-50K entry!

    In any case, I'm expecting to roll over 50K within the next 3-4 of months... And when this motor keels over, I'll just throw another one in it.

    This is encouraging stuff. I'm glad to see so many bikes getting High milage numbers.
